Year-Round Volunteers

Year-round, volunteers choose volunteer opportunities that fit their own schedules and interests. At first, volunteers are encouraged (and expected) to take on administrative tasks, for example assisting with mailouts or making routine query calls. As they become more familiar with the organization, responsibilities may increase and could lead to permanent paying positions.
